Lower back tattoos have become very popular choices for female tattoo placement. Big or small, these have become the choice spot for female tattoo designs.

Unfortunately, a slang terminology has emerged for those of us who have chosen these tattoos. That slang term is "tramp stamp".

So where does the label "tramp stamp" come from? Well, basically lower back tattoos have become very trendy. Many women jumped on the bandwagon and have chosen to get lower backs just because it was popular to do so. This trendy, overpopulation of tats eventually took notice, and hence the slang terminology emerged.

Should I still get a so called "tramp stamp" tattoo?

Well my answer may shock you, but I would say yes, definitely. But only if you can rise above the slang terminology, and only if you truly do feel that a low back tat is for you. That is, if you are just getting a back tattoo because it is popular or trendy then you aren't really getting it for good design placement or personal preference beyond popularity.

If you don't care to deal with the tramp stamp terminology, there are many other good, unique options for female tattoo placement. I prefer side body tattoos for instance. These can look very unique and pretty. Upper back tattoos are also nice, as well as mid back tats.

Now, tattoo designs can be unique and original. I personally love mural type designs on the low back, and you can even extend these designs to your side making it even more unique.
